Answer:
Underapplied by $3,000
Explanation:
Calculation for what The Corporation's manufacturing overhead cost for the year was:
First step is to calculate the Predetermined Overhead rate
Predetermined Overhead rate=( $ 330,000/ 55,000)
Predetermined Overhead rate= $ 6 per labor hour
Now let calculate the Manufacturing overhead cost
Manufacturing overhead cost= (6 x 57 000)-$345,000
Manufacturing overhead cost=$342,000-$345,000
Manufacturing overhead cost=Underapplied by $3,000
Therefore The Corporation's manufacturing overhead cost for the year was:underapplied by $3,000
Why do you think the Federal government taxes long-term capital gains and qualified dividends at a lower rate than earned
and other types of unearned income?
Answer:
The justification for a lower tax rate on capital gains relative to ordinary income is threefold: it is not indexed for inflation, it is a double tax, and it encourages present consumption over future consumption. ... Future personal consumption, in the form of savings, is taxed, while present consumption is not.
Explanation:
A firm that has recently experienced an enormous growth rate is seeking to lease a small plant in Memphis, TN; Biloxi, MS; or Birmingham, AL. Prepare an economic analysis of the three locations given the following information: Annual costs for building, equipment, and administration would be $59,000 for Memphis, $69,000 for Biloxi, and $104,000 for Birmingham. Labor and materials are expected to be $7 per unit in Memphis, $5 per unit in Biloxi, and $5 per unit in Birmingham. The Memphis location would increase system transportation costs by $58,000 per year, the Biloxi location by $68,500 per year, and the Birmingham location by $25,400 per year. Expected annual volume is 14,400 units.
Answer:
Total cost for a location = Annual costs for building, equipment, and administration + Labor and materials cost per unit*expected annual volume + Increase in transportation costs
Total cost for Memphis location = $59000 + $7*14400 + $58000
Total cost for Memphis location = $217,800
Total cost for Biloxi location = $69000 + $5*14400 + $68500
Total cost for Biloxi location = $209,500
Total cost for Birmingham location = $104000 + 5*14400 + $25400
Total cost for Birmingham location = $201,400
So, Birmingham location gives the lowest Annual Total Cost.
To finance the building of a new fire station, a local government is likely to borrow money by issuing?
a. junk bonds
b. treasury bonds
c. municipal bonds
d. money market bonds
Answer:
c
Explanation:
Label the scenarios as examples of elastic, inelastic, or unit elastic demand.
a. When Ruko, a device used to stream movies at home, increases prices by 48 %, total revenue decreases by 59 %.
b. When Cinema Supreme decreases ticket prices by 12 %, total revenue does not change.
c. When Bluebox, a DVD rental kiosk, increases its prices by 52 %, total revenue increases by 34 %.
Answer:
A) elastic demand
B) unit elastic demand
C) inelastic demand
Explanation:
A)
increases prices = 48 %
total revenue decreases = 59% hence, this is elastic demand. Since increase in price has brought about decrease in quantity demand definitely revenue will fall
B)
decreases ticket prices = 12 %
total revenue doesn't altered hence it s unit elastic demand, since there is change in price and quantity demand. So revenue remains unaltered.
C)
increases its prices = 52%
total revenue increases = 34%
Quantity demanded is lower to change in price hence, increase in total revenue. Hence it's inelastic demand

Suppose consumers buy 50 million packs of cigarettes per month at a price of $5 per pack. If a $1 tax is added to that
price, By what percentage does the price change
Answer:
Percentage change= 20%
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price before tax= $5
Tax= $1
Selling price after tax= $6
To calculate the percentage increase, we need to use the following formula:
Percentage change= [(Selling price after tax - Selling price before tax)/Selling price before tax]*100
Percentage change= [(6 - 5)/5]*100
Percentage change= 20%
If the company were to issue an annual zero-coupon bond with a maturity of 2 years and par value of $1,000, what would be the arbitrage-free price of that bond?
Answer:
Note: The complete question is attached as picture below
1a. The one year spot rate can be calculated using the one year zero bond.
PV * (1 + S1) = FV
1 + S1 = 1000 / 900
S1 = 1.1111 - 1
S1 = 0.1111
S1 = 11.11%
1b. PV of the 2 year bond = $950
Annual coupon = 1000 * 5% = $50
950 = 50 / (1 + S1) + (50 + 1000) / (1 + S2)^2
950 = 50 / 1.1111 + 1,050 / (1 + S2)^2
1,050/ (1 + S2)^2 = 950 - 45 = 905
(1 + S2)^2 = 1050 / 905
1 + S2 = 1.160221/2
S2 = 7.714%
1c. Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / (1 + 0.07714)^2
Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / 1.1602
Price of the 2 year zero bond = 861.9203586
Price of the 2 year zero bond = $861.92
The following events took place at a manufacturing company for the current year:
a. Purchased $95,900 in direct materials.
b. Incurred labor costs as follows:
1. direct, $56,900
2. indirect, $14,500.
c. Other manufacturing overhead was $107,900, excluding indirect labor.
d. Transferred 80% of the materials to the manufacturing assembly line.
e. Completed 65% of the Work-in-Process during the year.
f. Sold 85% of the completed goods.
g. There were no beginning inventories.
Required:
What is the value of the ending Work-in-Process Inventory?
Answer:
The ending Work-in-Process Inventory is:
= $89,600.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Purchases of direct materials = $95,900
Materials used (80% of $95,900) $76,720
Direct labor incurred = 56,900
Overhead costs:
Indirect labor incurred = 14,500
Other overhead costs 107,900 122,400
Total production costs $256,020
Cost of goods completed = 166,413
Ending Work in Process = $89,607
Cost of goods completed = $166,413
Cost of goods sold = 85% of $166,413 = $141,451
Ending Finished goods inventory = $24,962
4. Labour Institutions Act(10MKS)
Outline five reasons that may make it necessary for a government to regulate wages of
employees in the country.
Answer:
Reduce discrimination. Reduce exploitation. Reduce inequality/ poverty. Increase productivity. Economic growth.Explanation:
It is necessary for the government to regulate wages because some companies might take advantage of little regulation to get away with many unjust and unethical actions as they chase profits or due to personal bias.
Without government regulation, there would be wage disparity between races and genders so regulation reduces that. Exploitation will also be reduced because companies will not take advantage of unemployment rates to make workers overwork themselves to keep their jobs.
Regulated wages will reduce inequality in social classes as well as poverty rates as people will be paid closer to what they deserve.
Regulated wages will also lead to improved productivity as people will be more encouraged when they are working knowing they are getting paid appropriately so they will work harder.
With people being paid appropriately, they will be able to afford more goods and invest more savings which will lead to growth in the economy.
A company is offering 5,000,000 new shares to the public. The shares are being sold to a syndicate for $12 and are being reoffered to the public at $13. The compensation to the underwriters for each share sold is $0.75. The selling group receives $0.30 a share for each share it sells, and the managing underwriter retains $0.25 in fees for each share sold by anybody. The selling group will assist in selling 1,000,000 out of the 5,000,000 shares offered. If the selling group sells its entire allotment how much does it make in profits
Answer:
The selling group makes $300,000 in profit if it sells its entire allotment.
Explanation:
The amount of profit makes by the selling group can be calculated using the following formula:
Selling group profit = Number of shares expected to be sold by the selling group * Amount to receive per share by the selling group ............... (1)
Where:
Number of shares expected to be sold by the selling group = 1,000,000
Amount to receive per share by the selling group = $0.30
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Selling group profit = 1,000,000 * $0.30 = $300,000
Therefore, the selling group makes $300,000 in profit if it sells its entire allotment.
On January 1, 2020, Ann Price loaned $216216 to Joe Kiger. A zero-interest-bearing note (face amount, $280000) was exchanged solely for cash; no other rights or privileges were exchanged. The note is to be repaid on December 31, 2022. The prevailing rate of interest for a loan of this type is 9%. The present value of $280000 at 9% for three years is $216216. What amount of interest income should Ms. Price recognize in 2020
Answer:
$19,459.44
Explanation
Interest expense in 2020 = Loan amount * Prevailing rate of interest
Interest expense in 2020 = $216216 * 9%
Interest expense in 2020 = $19,459.44
So, $19,459.44 is the amount of interest income that Ms. Price should recognize in 2020

Newt is a single taxpayer living in Hollywood, California, with adjusted gross income for the 2018 tax year of $43,050. Newt's employer withheld $3,700 in state income tax from his salary. In April of 2018, he paid $300 in additional state taxes for his prior year's return. The real estate taxes on his home are $1,800 for 2018 and his personal property tax based on the value of his automobile is $75. Also, he paid $210 for state gasoline taxes for the year. The IRS estimate of general sales tax for Newt is $1,200 for 2018.
How much should Newt deduct on Schedule A of Form 1040 of his 2018 tax return for taxes paid?
Answer:
$510
Explanation:
Adjusted gross income for 2018 = $43050
state income tax = $3,700
Real estate tax = $1800
personal property tax = $75
Total tax paid = 3700 + 1800 + 75 = $5575
Additional tax paid not part of the current year tax return = $300
The amount that Newt deduct on Schedule A of form 1040 of his 2018 return for taxes paid will be = state gasoline tax and tax for prior year
= $210 + $300 = $510 will be deducted from the schedule A of form 1040 of his 2018 tax return for taxes paid
During June, Buttrey Corporation incurred $72,000 of direct labor costs and $12,000 of indirect labor costs. The journal entry to record the accrual of these wages would include a:__________
a. debit to Work in Process of $67,000
b. credit to Work in Process of $74,000
c. debit to Work in Process of $74,000
d. credit to Work in Process of $67,000
The correct question is:
During June, Buttrey Corporation incurred $67,000 of direct labor costs and $7,000 of indirect labor costs. The journal entry to record the accrual of these wages would include a:
A)debit to Work in Process of $67,000B)credit to Work in Process of $74,000C)debit to Work in Process of $74,000D)credit to Work in Process of $67,
Answer:
a. debit to Work in Process of $67,000
Explanation:
Labour costs are made up of direct labour cost and indirect labour costs.
An addition of these two items results in amount of money the company will pay as wages to worked (labour).
In the given scenario we will then add direct and indirect labour cost to get wages to be paid.
Wage = 72,000 + 12,000 = $84,000
Wages is credited when raising journal entry
Direct labour will be classified under work in process (that is $72,000)
While indirect labour is manufacturing overhead $12,000)
Work in process and manufacturing overhead are debited when raising journal entry
So one of the entries will be a debit to Work in Process of $67,000
There is only one way to find an average.
A True
B False
Answer:In mathspeak, what people usually call the "average" is properly known as the "mean" or the "mean number." There are actually two other types of averages – the "mode" and "median" – that you'll learn about when you study statistics. But for most mathematical applications, the term "average" tells you to seek out the mean, which can be calculated with basic addition and division

Newland Company reported retained earnings at December 31, 2019, of $310,000. Newland had 200,000 shares of common stock outstanding at the beginning of 2020. The following transactions occurred during 2020. 1. A cash dividend of $0.50 per share was declared and paid. 2. A 5% stock dividend was declared and distributed when the market price per share was $15 per share. 3. Net income was $285,000. Compute the ending balance in retained earnings at the end of 2020.
Answer:
$495,000
Explanation:
retained earnings December 31, 2019 = $310,000
cash dividends = 200,000 x $0.50 = $100,000
net income during 2020 = $285,000
ending balance of retained earnings for December 31, 2020 = $495,000
stock dividends do not affect retained earnings

Explain how opportunity cost is different for economic goods and free goods
Answer:
The difference is that free goods have exactly zero opportunity cost, because they cost nothing, their price is zero, and their use is non rival, and non excludable, meaning that if a person uses a free good, that person does not prevent any other person from using the good.
Economic goods, on the other hand, are goods that have a price, and that have a cost of production. Besides they are rival and/or exclusionary. The opportunity cost of an economic good varies depending on the good, but it is never zero.

A small firm intends to increase the capacity of a bottleneck operation by adding a new machine. Two alternatives, A and B, have been identified and the associated costs and revenues have been estimated. Annual fixed costs would be $40,000 for A and $30,000 for B; variable costs per unit would be $10 for A and $12 for B; and revenue per unit would be $15 for A and $16 for B.
a) Determine each alternative’s break-even point in units.
b) At what volume of output would the two alternatives yield the same profit?
c) If expected annual demand is 12,000 units, which alternative would yield the higher profit?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Alternative A:
Fixed costs= $40,000
Variable cost per unti= $10
Revenue per unit= $15
Alternative B:
Fixed costs= $30,000
Variable cost per unti= $12
Revenue per unit= $16
First, we need to calculate the break-even point in units using the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Alternative A= 40,000 / (15 - 10)
Alternative A= 8,000
Alternative B= 30,000 / (16 - 12)
Alternative B= 7,500
To calculate the indifference point in units, we need to determine the net income equations:
Alternativa A= 5*x - 40,000
Alternative B= 4*x - 30,000
x= number of units
We equal both formulas and isolate x:
5x - 40,000 = 4x - 30,000
x = 10,000
The indifference point is 10,000 units.
Finally, the higher income for 12,000 units:
Alternativa A= 5*12,000 - 40,000= $20,000
Alternative B= 4*12,000 - 30,000= $18,000
For 12,000 units the best option is alternative A.

Blue Spruce Company had $152,600 of net income in 2016 when the selling price per unit was $153, the variable costs per unit were $93, and the fixed costs were $573,300. Management expects per unit data and total fixed costs to remain the same in 2017. The president of Blue Spruce Company is under pressure from stockholders to increase net income by $61,700 in 2017.
(a) Compute the number of units sold in 2016. (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 1,225.) ______units
(b) Compute the number of units that would have to be sold in 2017 to reach the stockholders' desired profit level. _______units
Answer:
12098
13127
Explanation:
Net income = revenue - total cost
revenue = price x unit sold
total cost = variable cost + fixed cost
variable cost = variable cost per unit x unit sold
unit sold is unknown, so it would be represented with a
$152,600 = $153a - ($93a + $573,300)
$152,600 = $153a - $93a - $573,300
Collect like terms and solve for a
a = 12,098
b. Net income in 2017 = $61,700 + $152,600 = 214,300
214,300 = $153a - $93a - $573,300
Collect like terms and solve for a
a = 13127
Eilert Construction Company had a contract starting April 2021, to construct a $42,000,000 building that is expected to be completed in September 2022, at an estimated cost of $38,500,000. At the end of 2021, the costs to date were $17,710,000 and the estimated total costs to complete had not changed. The progress billings during 2021 were $8,400,000 and the cash collected during 2021 was $5,600,000. Eilert uses the percentage of completion method. For the year ended December 31, 2018, Eilert would recognize gross profit on the building of:__________
a. $0.
b. $1,475,833.
c. $1,610,000.
d. $1,890,000.
Answer:
c. $1,610,000
Explanation:
Percentage of completion method is used to estimate the expenditures and revenue of a long term project on the basis of percentage of work that is completed in the period.
Apart from this method GAAP also allows completed contract method that involves full completion of project to recognise revenue.
Therefore revenue will be
Revenue = (contract amount - cost at end of the project completion) * (cost incurred at period of consideration ÷ cost at the end of the project completion)
Revenue = (42,000,000 - 38,500,000) * (17,710,000 ÷ 38,500,000)
Revenue = 3,500,000 * 0.46 = $1,610,000
